Hello Emma. Welcome to the forum.

Ouch to the max that you lost your biggest supporter. Moral and emotional support make a huge difference in this crazy ol' world we live in.

I opine that you took a great step in joining here. No one can ever replace that favorite teacher, but maybe we can make that teacher proud in how we fill in the gap. Maybe. . . We see. . . You are the one with all that inside scoop.

Welcome aboard, Emma. Hope you find gentle support here.

Welcome aboard. What a huge loss. Big, caring hugs. Anorexia is a way to control the one thing you can, but not good for your health. We hope to support you as you deal with the depression, the anxiety, the very raw grief, and the eating disorder. I am in several groups here to focus on different issues. You are welcome to do the same. The anorexia comes under the addiction heading. Meanwhile, lots of healing and comforting hugs.

Welcome, Emma. We could never replace that great teacher you had that you lost to cancer. We can, though, tide you over with support until you make another friend like that. The fact that you made a friend like that once means you can do it again.

    First, I hope everyone is doing well, and continuing to fight that good fight! Keep up the great work on yourselves; I'm rooting for all of you!So, I started doing therapy at the beginning of the year, when I was in my most depressed state, but with my therapist, I made big changes and steps in the right direction. But, over a month ago, she couldn't take my insurance anymore, and I had to stop...
